| Summary/Abstract |
Contrary to detailed work on deterrence by punishment, Western strategic thought about denial and its effects is conceptually muddled at the expense of effective strategy-making. This article seeks to reconceptualize denial and rethink its emotional effects. It defines denial as a strategy aimed at frustrating the adversary’s military power and proposes four different denial logics: capability elimination, operational paralysis, tactical degradation, and strategic effect reduction. It then turns to the effects through which these denial logics generate favorable consequences, and singles out the emotions of despondency, resignation, fear, and disappointment as the key factors that mediate their impact. The article offers a framework that can help guide further theoretical reflection and empirical research, as well as inform the development of policies and strategies in today’s world.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article offers an initial framework for a future theory of warlord politics using a simple game theoretic approach. We address the topic abstractly rather than empirically to develop a set of testable propositions across the wide range of warlord regimes. We discuss the reciprocal military and economic foundations of warlord domination, the structural logic of warlord politics, the stability of warlord regimes, and the circumstances that can be expected to lead to the formation and dissolution of warlord coalitions. We offer a conceptual introduction to these topics and lay the groundwork for a more systematic treatment of these and related themes in subsequent work.

| Summary/Abstract |
This paper examines an option of establishing a logical definition of the concept military science, and also suggests a solution to the old problem of defining the object of military science. At the same time, it touches upon the issue of forming scientific terminology as exemplified by the term military art. The problems outlined in the paper, in the author's opinion, are chiefly possible to solve on the basis of formal logic.

| Summary/Abstract |
This paper looks at two concepts fairly popular in military political analysis, to wit: strategic thinking and strategic analysis, from the viewpoint of logic. When exploring strategic thinking, attention is focused not only on the interpretation of the notions thinking and strategy, but also on the content of thinking, which is to follow the rules of logic. Strategic analysis is examined strictly as a method.
